Abstract

A method of determining reserved tones to be used for reduction of a peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of a signal includes: randomly selecting carrier indices for the reserved tones and generating a kernel signal based on the randomly selected carrier indices; calculating a comparison reference average value of the kernel signal, comparing the calculated comparison reference average value with a prestored comparison reference average value, and preliminarily determining carrier indices of the reserved tones based on the comparison; randomly re-arranging an order of the preliminarily determined carrier indices of the reserved tones; and calculating the comparison reference average value while changing each of the re-arranged indices of the reserved tones, and finally determining carrier indices for which the calculated comparison reference average value becomes the smallest value as carrier indices of the reserved tones.

       13. The receiving apparatus as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the pilot insertion pattern is determined based Dx=3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, and
 wherein Dx is a difference of carrier indices between adjacent carriers into which a pilot is to be inserted. 
 
     
     
       14. The receiving apparatus as claimed in  claim 12 , wherein the pilot insertion pattern is determined based Dy=2, 4, and
 wherein Dy is a difference of symbol indices between successive pilots on a specific carrier.
